Green Printing Program

Less waste. More control.

Instead of printing immediately, documents are securely held until they are released at a printer. This helps reduce forgotten print jobs, repeated printing, and unnecessary waste across campus.

Built for sustainability.

The new generation of KAUST printers is designed to use energy, ink, and toner more efficiently. Combined with secure release printing, this supports KAUST’s sustainability goals while reducing unnecessary consumption.

Smarter use of shared resources.

Green Printing gives departments and KAUST IT better visibility into printing usage over time. This helps improve planning, identify usage trends, reduce operational costs, and support a more predictable and reliable service.

Secure by design.

Documents are not printed until someone logs in at the printer and releases them. This helps protect sensitive information and reduces the risk of documents being picked up or left behind unintentionally.

Print your way.

You can print from KAUST-provided computers, personal laptops and desktops, and mobile phones or tablets. Laptops and desktops use print.kaust.edu.sa, while phones and tablets use the MyQ X app.
